What on earth are you talking about? background? sidebars?

For background, I assume you mean the desktop background:

if [ -f /usr/bin/X11/xsetroot ]; then
        /usr/bin/X11/xsetroot -solid wheat4
fi

But, many window managers can do a much better job with that.

Have no idea what you mean by "sidebar"? Maybe you should explain what
you're trying to do a little more.  And maybe include the relevant
sections of ~/.xession.

BTW, .xsession needs to be executable (chmod +x .xsession).
